That's fair, since they're on the record as endorsing groups that are recognized by the Canadian government as terrorist entities:
To be even more fair; you're directly quoting misinformation released by the Canadian government in support of Israel and their mass murder of Palestinian people (aka, genocide). This misinformation is a result of "Jewish" groups, which recently have shown themselves as basically being lapdogs for the Israeli state.
Kneecap aren't anti-semetic, they are anti-Israel and as much as Israeli fascists want it to be; being against the Israeli state is not the the same as being against Jews.
This!!
Is this video misinformation? https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9ie5qs
Yes because people in power have always made decent decisions. The law is moral and might makes right…
I'm not sure what you mean by that comment - are you saying Hamas and Hezbollah are OK? I wouldn't welcome a band that praises the IDF, and this is no different.
Where did I say this?
Hasbara-brained dummies will remember you saying whatever they want, without evidence.
They got marked as zionist.
How, they equated Hezbollah to the IDF. Regardless of any arguments about equivalence or lack thereof, I don't think a zionist would ever do that.
They could be misinformed.
What better way to mitigate misinformation than to silence people?
We're born misinformed.
But don't mind me, I'm on my third Friday beer. 😄
Some people here think everything is a Marvel movie with one perfectly good side and one perfectly bad one. Any deviation from that and they slap you with the "bad guy" label. Only a complete moron would read my post and interpret it as meaning I'm a zionist.
Ofcourse you go silent as soon as someone directly asks if you support October 7th... Coward.
Yet you ignore how 65k Palestinians were murdered by the IDF. How pathetic to throw insults.
Talk about deflection and straw manning. You still haven't answered the question.
what do you think of them?
what do you think of october 7th?
I don't think you can take a single live artististic performance as "being on the record for endorsing" anything.
Eminem wasn't endorsing everything in his lyrics.

Yes, like I said.
Me, an intellectual, looking at a guy wearing a Hezbollah flag and saying up Hamas, up Hezbollah: "actually that doesn't prove he likes Hezbollah"

I find it hard to reconcile that with the video, but if they are willing to publicly apologize for it then they should be allowed into Canada.
It's really easy to reconcile that with the video. It's called watching the atrocities that Israel commits, and getting angry enough that you say something you don't entirely mean or haven't entirely thought through.
This seems a foreign concept to many folks here and elsewhere online, but somehow I've managed to be horrified by Israel's genocide and want to end it, without ever thinking "you know what, the literal terrorists on the other side are good actually, death to Israel and all Jews".
Oh wow! I'm so glad to hear that! We all care sooo much about your personal experience with anger!
Thank God the way that you get angry and emotional, is the exact same way that everyone else does, in every single situation!
Whew, for a second there I thought we might have to use the power of remembering times when we were extremely angry and said things we didn't mean, and try and combine that with empathy to apply it to the current situation, but thank God we don't because /u/Cyrus here has explained that he's never said anything he didn't mean out of anger. So obviously everyone else must be the same in every situation.
Thank you cyrus, we all believe your words sooo much, and definitely don't just think you're a brain dead dumbass.
FYI what you're advocating and defending here is textbook abuser behaviour, so rather than belittling others you may want to get counseling.
Lmao, tell us you spend all your time on the internet without telling us you spend all your time on the internet.
Go outside. Experience real human interaction.
